Smart Parenting of the Day: Dad Hires Online Hitmen to Keep Son from Gaming

Tired of seeing his 23-year-old son Xiao Feng play video games instead of job hunting, Mr. Feng of Jiangxi province, China hired high level hitmen in several online role playing games to kill his son's characters every time he logged in. After Xiao Feng caught on to his father's meddling, he told his father he was taking his time on the job hunt because he wanted to find one that fit him best. His father said he was relieved to hear this, but it is unknown whether or not the hitmen have been called off, according to Kotaku.

Wow, that is one way to attack a problem.

Surely the easier answer would be to cut off his pocket money, I mean who is buying his games?

If your goal in life is to find a job and you will do whatever it takes you will find one.

In fact the harder you work and more passionate you are the better you do in life.

relentless people ALWAYS rise to the top eventually.

These days people generally give up very quickly and moan that they can't do it.

Weak as water.

I read this earlier on the BBC website. It actually made one of today's top 10 most read articles.

I do agree though that people are lame these days. I feel like I'm a lot lazier than my parents and definitely my grandparents, and it annoys me. I think my generation and younger are generally pretty crappy - we just want to do whatever we want, we want everything now and we don't want to work to get it either.
